The while most of the country was out of a job trying to make rent and just barely scraping by and trying not to get sick our good friends at the pentagon took our attack post fight this pandemic and instead they splurged on themselves in their defense contractor buddies apparently the pentagons top brass are no longer men of honor but in truth theyre really just 16 year old girls on amazon with moms amex card but it wasnt just our good friends in the War Department splurging on taxpayer dollars want to be action hero but real Life Republican Party hack and trump yes mad in the acting Homeland Security director chad wolf well hes under fire this week as n. B. C. News reports that the Consulting Firm where his wife works has been awarded more than 6000000. 00 in contracts from the department of Homeland Security since september of 2018 and then although the company has a long history of federal contracts her company did not do. Who worked for b h s until after will become the will became the t. S. A. Is cheap and 2017 now naturally chad deflected these accusations as chads often do with a spokesperson saying quote at no time and in any of his position since joining the department of Homeland Security has acting secretary will been involved in any awarding of contracts sorry chad sorry pentagon but actions my friends will always speak louder than words especially when it comes to how tax dollars are used and that my friends is why were always watching all. You want to go on a city street. Letter so lets see the prices you always stay ill see you. Great to see this least systemic deceptions show which. Brings up your. Welcome aboard to watching the hawks i robot and im with you yes you are all right. Goodness gracious images of the pentagon took a 1000000000. 00 of character money money that was supposed to go to the defense and safety of everything that could be done to keep us from getting sick with covertly or help us through this pandemic and really just kind of. A lot of fun stuff there should be a lot of outreach i mean were still counting the numbers of those whove been impacted as well as those who have died from coal but 19 and looking towards this next phase of what it might look like in this country and to think that there were so many people deny people to think that there were so Many Organizations that had no place to turn and the money with their supplies where they are and just being what it was used but i think that there should be a lot of outrage and a lot of upset people but also this goes to show trumps you know draining the swamp montra absolutely nothing because we see its just a swampy now as its ever been. You know youre actually youre youre not alone in that thought dr emily porter a medical doctor who also is related to katie porter the senator you know the one who was always like lane on these guys in the fortys she actually tweeted out if you cant get a covert test or fine and 95 its because these contractors stole from the American People to make faster jets and fancy uniforms after all trying to say we are quote unquote at war it is bad when you look at like what these people did not wasnt jogo us of these were like 16 year old kids with a charge card you know its now its not just the president knew just how serious they were 19 was we know that from you know that the woodwork tapes now it that he was also complicit in the government taking money taking supplies that were much needed and to help mitigate some of this disaster and i think that you know the further we dig into this story the more depressing it actually gets it really is a real is this the care ok so the pentagon essentially spent this 1000000000. 18 the firms including wrote rolls royce they needed to maintain Ship Building Industries you had tens of millions of dollars for satellite drone and space Surveillance Technology well that keeps us safe you had 80000000. 00 towards Aircraft Assembly plants 2000000. 00 towards manufacturing of Army Uniforms so my question is is this like not earmarked towards anything thats a difficult 1000. 00 because what is the justification were not actively at war with anybody. To utilize those funds when you know you have cash strapped states that are begging for assistance to battle so that 19 this is just a moderate are you ready for the justification are you ready ok allen lore of the undersecretary for accu acquisition and sustainment defended the Pentagon Spending by telling journalists quote we need to always remember that Economic Security and National Security are very tightly in a related and our Industrial Base is really the nexus of the 2 basically saying let me know you know stream that shes basically saying that look the military industrial calm. Plex is the fuel that runs this country if we let that die then everything dies so we need to give that money wherever it may need to go within the military Industrial Complex because they were dependent on that which would have only made sense if we were actively in combat. Nothing about her statement i can see why she made it you got to say you got to Say Something to see what sticks nothing in that statement makes sense when it comes to why this was actually used again were not in active combat we have a president who continues to say hes drawing troops back so why are we still funding funneling this money through a war machine when theres nothing theres nothing happening right now and its sad too because congress you know theyre the ones who put the care act together theyre the ones who could have put those rules and regulations in the how these departments spend money and they didnt over and over again and then i mean you know going back a little further now we have the scandal with our good buddy chad wolf. Who says look i didnt do anything to get my wifes company that she works for more money from the d. H. S. S. And contracts but its like she wouldnt have to Everybody Knows when when nudge nudge exactly that that name alone in his position helps her to get those contracts and he doesnt have to basically say or call somebody else. Its just frustrating we know theres a lot of cronyism going on in the Trump White House than in many white houses prior to this but this is just so blatant. The founder and president of accountable us mr will join the d. H. As it began pumping millions of dollars into his wifes firm which also happens to be is the largest financial asset the arrangement is highly problematic and warrants congressional scrutiny yes it is because that is one wolf has to list like federally list his Financial Disclosure form his wifes 1100000 dollar retirement account with Berkeley Research group the company Research Group that is his biggest asset so its kind of like buddy but at least try to pretend youre above board. Say her name. Briana taylor weve seen elected leaders activists athletes and entertainers take to the streets where mask emblazoned with Briana Taylors name picked twitter vocalizing the need for police work warm and calling for charges meanwhile keeping Briana Taylors name alive theyve created means and videos to remind people that 6 months after the death of unarmed young black 1st responder died at the hands of police her murder had yet to face criminal penalties how in america under the backdrop of covert 19 could a 1st responder emergency medical technician awarded by the state of kentucky and her hometown die and marry a charge or her murders. Will that all change today. 3 counts of wanting endangerment were announced this afternoon these charges arguably fall below what was legally possible but charges dont even attempt to address the murder Briana Taylor at all there are no homicide charges and only one officer was charged leaving the other 2 completely free to recourse for their actions and just enough why the maximum punishment for wanton endangerment in kentucky is 5 years a pretty low bar for murder. In advance of the announcement Kentucky Attorney general Daniel Cameron spoke of the decision relating to the Louisville Metro Police officers responsible for going to taylors death and the louisville mayor declared a state of emergency Mary Greg Fisher implemented a curfew cordoning off the downtown area and limiting the areas where protesters could gather through a series of executive orders it seems as though the city of louisville and the state of kentucky care a lot more about calling protests they do about pursuing justice but we got a pale cool Justice Reform clearly has a long way to go Law Enforcement agencies protect their own and people are disappointed by the charges released from the grand jury today but theyre not surprised or a valid thing message with that in kentucky and across America Black lives simply dont matter our murders arent worth fully prosecuting and there is no true justice to be found when the murderers wear a badge and everything that you just said to finish it up i couldnt agree more because that is the biggest basic problem is that if you are murdered by someone wearing a bad and youre black but now were finding out if youre a lot of other colors to. The states always going to side with the bad thats what it pretty much boils down to at the end of the day they might get a slap on the wrist they might. Kind of sorta maybe shouldnt discharge his weapon blah blah blah but at the end of the day granted taylor sorry you dont exist areas on and think that the most shocking part we were literally having a conversation about this earlier the most shocking part in this is the charges that were actually brought down and i think that there will be some people many people would have been we would have thought of it differently if they were not there might as well have been no charges at all because if were talking want on abandonment were talking a charge that has absolutely nothing to do with the murder of Brianna Taylor but even in the listing of that charge and of itself her name is never mentioned theyre actually more worried about the areas that the bullets ricocheted off while they were firing into her apartment than theyre worried about the murder of an armed innocent sleeping black woman there were sort of this bullet went through you and put your neighbors and their injures kind of what it says and the fact that the officer who got charged with this wasnt even one of the true that they believe you know they didnt really say which officer i mean killed or today but he wasnt even involved in the actual killing of her but he was shooting but because none of his bullets even came near her exactly and thats a very interesting point to make because the 2 guys who are more than likely responsible for her death contributed to it they received charges at all so today you know that that press conference was very confusing it was very frustrating and i think that rightfully so there are a lot of people in the streets protesting a lot of folks on social media basically calling this out as a huge ringback importance of justice specifically because Brianna Taylor was the type of victim that white people and White America has been contingent conditioned to believe what were seeing equitable justice shes somebody who didnt have a criminal background shes somebody who in other terms came from good stuff and shes someone who did everything right she was a 1st responder with the backdrop of kobe 19 she was a great student shes somebody who before all intents and purposes you would put forth all the effort you could to make sure that her that there is some justice. To her and her family and thats just not what we saw its interesting when you talk about to your perspective of this region because you were in chicago when with one mcdonald very similar circumstance and again same kind of reaction from from the people that are supposed to mitigate justice them and basically said well we dont really want to give these People Justice absolutely that and these cases are quite similar so 9 we know that in both the brown taylor case and the mcdonalds case there were large settlements that were given to the family prehearing what the grand jury was actually going to charge an officer with in both cases the charges were very minimal and in the case d of donald it came down to 3 years he was only going to serve a year and a half and i dont believe he served all of that sentence but in addition to that one of the things that both cities chicago and louisville have done is put such an emphasis on the city being protected from protesters and so what i noticed in chicago and it happened in the murder happened in my community was that the streets were cordoned off the curfews were put in place you had these Police Officers and tanks and everything because they were waiting for black people to be in the streets going hey i am because of a very low rate of charges over there being an under charge in that case the exact same thing is happening right now in louisville where you see there being such a crazy amount of restrictions placed on protesters in addition to a state of emergency being declared and a city basically being cordoned off and theres a lot more intuitiveness put in trying to protect people from protests and then there is protecting people from Police Officers who just may take their lead that shows you where the government whether state local or federal kind of views these things theyre more upset that people are out protesting than innocent people are getting killed by police but what angers them more is you standing up to them saying hey we dont we want to see justice we dont want to see injustice anymore the system is broken that upsets the government more. Dont protest were going to line our streets with militarized cops trying to keep it from protesting then innocent people getting shot at night in their apartments and i think sad we should be upset everybody should be upset in a country that was founded on protests this push against protesting right now is just extremely active and there should be no more beyond a tailors that should be rule number one you want to stop protests dont let any more Brianna Taylors happen simple as that. All right as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on demand for the brand new portable t. V. Which is available on all platforms coming up. Body sits down with us to talk about the new round of sanctions the trials the ministration of leverage here against iran this latest escalation focuses on arms sales among the iranian officials but how effective have sanctions ban them are on truly pose a threat to the u.

In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the death. Or inmate in the shallow. This week United States president and our brand name and shiva donald j. Trump once again escalated tensions between the United States and iran by signing an executive order authorizing sanctions on iran its officials entities and those that buy and sell arms to and from them this stems from a move at the end of august by the trumpet ministration to reinstate all of the often brutal sanctions on iran that were lifted as part of the original Iranian Nuclear deal negotiated by the Obama Administration a. B. C. News reports that quote the move has been rejected by the United Nations and u. S. Allies like france germany and the United Kingdom and adversaries such as china and russia who all remain part of the Iran Nuclear Deal but that lack of support by the un and the Security Council does not faze the Trump Administration as kelly craft the u. S. Ambassador to the. Out of states told the media quote we dont need a cheering section to validate our moral compass really not find comfort based soley on numbers particular
